P2 Memory Card Recording Brings the IT
Revolution to Video Production
Neither tape nor disc, the
P2 card is a semiconductor memory device that can hold large amounts of video and audio data.
The P2 card's advanced
AV technology bring the proven benefits of an IT workflow to broadcasting and video production. Memory card recorders have no drive mechanism, so maintenance costs are much lower.
And with their outstanding resistance to impact, vibration, temperature change, dust and other environmental conditions, they offer the high reliability you need in news acquisition and video recording. P2 also transfers data at higher speeds than optical discs or hard drives, so video production is quicker.
And P2 files can be transferred as they are – no digitizing required - to nonlinear editors and other network-connectable equipment. With all these advantages, it's no wonder many of the world's leading broadcast stations have already adopted
P2. Panasonic P2 equipment has turned in gold-medal performances on the biggest stages - such as the 2004
Olympic Games in Athens and the 2006 Winter Olympic
Games in Torino. P2 will be on hand for the next Olympics too, as the official broadcasting equipment for the 2008 Games in Beijing.

Professional HD Quality
Progressive 3CCD and 2/3-inch Interchangeable Lens System for Full-Fledged HD Video Production
2/3-Inch Interchangeable Lens System
The 2/3-inch bayonet mount allows use of a wide assortment of broadcast and professional lenses from a number of companies*.
2/3-inch zoom lenses make it easier to capture the shallower depth of field often used in professional videos.
Progressive 3CCD
The AG-HPX500's 2/3-inch progressive 3CCD* has a larger light receiving area for higher sensitivity, and achieves an optimal balance among image quality, sensitivity and cost.
The camera CCDs scan at full 1080/60 (or 50) progressive frames a second. It is this initial capture that is the foundation for all of the formats that this camera generates. While the camera does not record 1080P/60(or 50), the signals start there and are either cross converted or down converted to the format being utilized that day.
Interlace scanning frame

* The effective image size of the CCD is equivalent to 2/3.2 inches.
Chromatic Aberration Compensation (CAC)
Chromatic Aberration Compensation (CAC) function is installed in
AG-HPX500. Combining with the correspondence lens allows
AG-HPX500 to automatically compensate the registration error that is caused mainly by lens chromatic aberration, and minimize the circumjacent blur.
14-bit Digital Circuitry
The AG-HPX500 features a highperformance digital signal processor (DSP) with 14-bit A/D conversion and 19-bit inner processing. This DSP provides gamma settings and makes other adjustments for each of the R, G and B color signals in that initial stage of picture generation from
1080 progressive, and it handles all HD/SD format conversion processes (P/I conversion, line conversion, down conversion) at the same time. You get superior image quality in all video formats.
HD/SD Multi-Format Capabilities
Supporting 32 HD/SD video recording formats, the AG-HPX500 meets professional needs in news acquisition and in the production of TV programming, independent films and other demanding video content, and its versatility allows this content to be distributed worldwide.
For 1080i/720p HD recording, the AG-HPX500 uses the DVCPRO
HD codec, with its proven track record in broadcasting applications.
For SD recording, the AG-HPX500's multi-codec capabilities let you select from DVCPRO50, DVCPRO and DV video quality.
Extended Recording with Four Slots for
16-GB P2 Cards
The AG-HPX500 has slots for four P2 cards so you can record continuously onto all four in sequence. Using four of the new 16-GB
P2 cards (available soon), you can get up to 68 minutes of HD recording (1080/60i, 4 cards x 17 minutes = 68) or 136 minutes of
SD (DVCPRO 50) recording (4 cards x 34 minutes = 136).

Shooting Performance
A Host of Features and Functions, Including a Variable Frame Rate Function for Cine-Like Video Production
Variable Frame Rate
In 720p mode,* the frame rate can be set from the conventional
24p/30p to any of 11 steps between 12p and 60p (or 50p).
Like the VariCam, the AG-HPX500 allows undercranking and overcranking common in film cameras to create fast-motion and slow-motion effects.
* In 1080 and 480 modes, the frame rate is fixed at 24p/30p (25p in the 50-Hz mode).
• Higher-rate shooting produces a slow-motion effect.
This is especially effective for high-action scenes like car chases or crashes, or for scenes with considerable dramatic impact.
• Lower-rate shooting creates a fast-motion effect.
This technique can be combined with a Slow Shutter
Speed to emphasize movements, such as flowing water or fast-moving clouds.

Native and Over-60p (50p) Modes
•720p Native Mode: The AG-HPX500 records images at the frame rate set in the camera. Using the AG-HPX500 to play back the recording at the normal rate, you can preview the speed effect right on the spot, without using a frame rate converter. Native mode also extends the recording time.
•720p over 60p (or 50p) Mode: The unit can output a DVCPRO HD stream from the IEEE 1394 connector as it records. This lets you produce a backup copy using a connected external hard disk recorder, such as the Panasonic AJ-HD1400 DVCPRO HD recorder or the Focus Enhancements FireStore FS-100.
Cine-Like Gamma (Eight-Mode Gamma)
Drawing on technologies developed for the VariCam, Panasonic has equipped the AG-HPX500 with advanced gamma functions that address eight different shooting scenarios and expand your creative abilities. Included are Cine-Like Gamma, which gives recordings the characteristic warm tone of film recordings, and a News Gamma that's designed especially for news gathering.

1080/480 24p Advance Mode
When recording in 1080/24p or 480/24p at 60 Hz, the AG-HPX500 lets you select 24pA (Advance) mode. In this mode, it performs 60i conversion using 2:3:3:2 pulldown, which maintains higher image quality than ordinary 24p (2:3 pulldown) in nonlinear editing*. In 30p and 25p recording (at 50 Hz), the AG-HPX500 uses 2:2 pulldown.
* For compatibility details, visit https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/sales_o/ieee1394

P2 Recording Function
Four Slots for Quick Recording on Reliable P2 Memory Cards
P2 Cards: High Capacity,
Fast Transfer and Superior Reliability
Developed for cost effective production applications, the P2 card consists of four SD cards packaged together as a single compact unit that weighs only about 0.099 lbs (45 grams). This ultra-reliable card has four times the capacity and four times the transfer speed of a single SD card.
In addition to the high resistance to impact, vibration and temperature change that semiconductor memory is known for, the
P2 card also offers outstanding reliability. Unlike tapes and discs, it has no rotating or contact parts. It's built to withstand repeated recording and initialization over many years of use. The P2 card connector is specifically designed to stand up to the repeated insertion and removal involved in professional use.
The AG-HPX500 records the A/V data for each recording as a file on the P2 card, which eliminates the need for digitizing. The files can be used directly in a nonlinear editing system or transferred over a network. The P2 card transfers data at a speed that discs simply cannot match, giving you faster, easier operation.
The P2 card is convenient too - you can plug it directly into the card slot on a laptop.
Immediate Startup and Better Data Protection
When you press the Record button in standby mode, the AG-HPX500 instantly finds a blank area on the P2 card and begins recording. It can begin recording immediately even when you're using it to preview video. In normal use, there's no chance of accidentally overwriting a recording. Recordings will not be erased unless you intentionally delete a file or initialize the card.
Advanced Recording Functions Employing
Four Card Slots
In addition to continuous, multiple-card recording, the four P2 card slots of the AG-HPX500 also enable some useful new recording functions that are possible only with memory cards.
• Card selector: The recording slot can be switched instantly when the unit is in standby mode. Immediately after recording a clip, you can remove the P2 card and use it in editing or transmission. This lets you continue your recording work with much shorter downtime than when changing tapes or discs.
• Hot-swap-rec: You can replace a full memory card with a blank one while the P2 cam is recording onto a second card.
Successively swapping cards gives you virtually unlimited recording capability.
• Loop-rec: This function can be specified in length and the camera will continuously record over that area until you push the pause.
This allows for a longer record time than pre-record.
Other Versatile Recording Functions
• Pre-rec: While in standby mode, you can continuously store, and subsequently record, up to 3 seconds in HD (7 seconds in SD). In effect, this lets you record footage of events that occur even before you press the Rec Start button, giving you a way to "go back" and capture moments you otherwise would have missed.
• One-shot rec: Convenient for producing animation, this mode records for a set time (from 1 frame to 1 second) each time you press the Start button.
• Interval rec: Recording one frame at a time at set intervals (from 2 frames to 10 min), this mode is useful for monitoring and special ultra-undercranking effects.
Clip Thumbnail/Data Function
The P2 cam records each recording as a clip (file) and automatically attaches a thumbnail image and file information to it. To preview a clip on the LCD monitor or to check clip data, simply choose the clip you want from the list of thumbnails.
The thumbnail image and file information can also be displayed on a
PC (using P2 Viewer*) or nonlinear editing software.
* P2 Viewer software for Windows PCs can be downloaded, free of charge.
Shot Marker and Text Memo
A shot mark, which allows convenient OK and NG marking, can be added to each clip during or after recording. When a P2 card with marked clips is inserted in a PC*, it's possible to have only the marked clips displayed. The AG-HPX500 also has a text memo function. When recording or previewing a clip, press the Text Memo button at any of up to 100 locations and a blank text memo label is registered. On your PC*, you can then search for the label and write a memo into it.
* Must have P2 Viewer installed
P2 Viewer
SD Memory Card Slot
Plug an SD card into the slot provided, and you can save or load scene files and user-setting files. You can create a metadata upload file (produced with P2 Viewer) containing information such as the name of the camera operator, the name of the reporter, the recording location, and text memos on an SD Memory Card, and load it as clip metadata.
Clip Thumbnail Display
System and Interface
Comes Equipped with IEEE 1394, USB 2.0 and HD SDI Interfaces. Allows Remote Control with the AJ-RC10G.
IEEE 1394 Interface
The IEEE 1394-compliant DVCPRO (6-pin) output connector lets you output all HD/SD compression streams without decoding.*
This means you can connect and use a DVCPRO HD VTR (such as the AJ-HD1400) or Focus Enhancements FireStore FS-100 for degradation-free backup recording.
The IEEE 1394 interface also makes it easy to upload data to a
Mac-based or PC-based nonlinear editing system. The AG-HPX500 also provides a host mode that lets you copy P2 files to a hard drive without using a PC.
* Output is not possible in 720p native mode (24pN 30pN, 25pN).

Workflow with P2HD
News Acquisition and Recording
You can configure a basic P2HD recording system by simply connecting the
AG-HPX500 to a laptop. It connects to a
Windows PC via USB 2.0 or to a Mac via
IEEE 1394. Insert a P2 card in the
AG-HPX500's slot, and you can use the PC to preview video clips on the card, copy files, and perform simple editing. Or, you can plug the P2 card directly into the slot on your laptop. For a higher-performance system, combine the AG-HPX500 with the
AJ-HPM100 Mobile Recorder. This system lets you perform a variety of operations, such as flexible previews with jog and dial control, playlist editing, file writing, and HD-
SDI/Analog/IEEE 1394 streaming output.
The AJ-PCS060G P2 store brings new convenience to many applications. It provides high-speed copying of video clips from a P2 card to its internal hard drive, and initializes the P2 card for immediate re-use.
The P2 store connects and mounts easily to a non-linear editor via USB 2.0.
Editing and Production
The AJ-PCD20 P2 drive lets you use P2 cards in nonlinear editing systems manufactured by other companies. Simply connect the AJ-PCD20 to the system via
IEEE 1394 or USB 2.0. With the P2 card there's no need for digitizing, so there's no time wasted.
The AG-HPX500 also adapts to conventional tape-based HD editing systems. Its HD-SDI/SDI output allows line recording or copying using any of a variety of HD/SD digital VTRs.
Movie Production
The AG-HPX500 integrates smoothly into systems with DVCPRO HD VTRs like the
VariCam. Because the recording codec in the AG-HPX500 is the same one used for both tape and card, it lets you convert, with no degradation, between media – from card to tape and from tape to nonlinear editor – via the IEEE 1394 interface.
